    And the same to you and yours :) I'm sitting here pondering ordering a 76xx so the 78xx can be updated without any wailing and gnashing of teeth when it goes all Chinese

    Getting a new computer (license) question

    As long as your only running one install of BI then just enter your info in the new PC and all should be fine... the only problems arise when you try to use more than one pc at a time, using the same BI licence number.

    On that settings screen there is no save button, when you change things it auto saves and shows a little message Maybe its not doing it cos the 'plug in is not detected' When I had a problem with loading the plug in, I fixed it by going to the Local Configuration screen and selecting Live...

    Quick and easy cameras

    Hi ccj64 As a test, or maybe even permanently for some of the cams, you can use a 12v psu and connect the camera to a non poe switch. BI is great (well 3.66 is :eek:) but nothing quite like an NVR as well for a back up plan, lol

    Cannot connect to nvr externally.

    Is the NVR connected directly to the internet ? if it goes through a router / modem then what is the ip that's given by the isp ?

    Cannot connect to nvr externally.

    let my gaurd down - ready to fight back with tech

    More affordable is the 1.5MP version of the above.... and it works better in lower light situations. But CCTV is for after the event.. for prevention from advancing beyond the perimeter maybe an alarm system, or better still a dog (or geese) :eek:

    DS-2CD2432F-IW best lens for baby monitor

    Well if size were to be 54" and the result was 6mm... Then if I've done my sums right.. the distance away to fill the image width would be about 6 feet 10 feet away = 10mm to fill the entire width & 15 feet away = 16mm, so if you really really want to fill the frame, then what I'd...

    As promised, the ambient street light comparison screen shots... with and without the bulkhead light. For purposes of this test, the cameras were mounted side by side behind glass that has a grey tint mirror film. Bulkhead light on, 1.3MP on the left... the 1.3 wins Bulkhead light off, the...

    Recomendations for low budget camera?

    Good luck with the changes Don, but from my own personal point of view.... once, twice, three times,four times bitten then there will be no fifth attempt (unless of course Foscam will accept the contents of the junk draw in exchange for cash, lol) Sounds like something I'd say.... :D And...
